ON FITTING GROUPS WHOSE PROPER SUBGROUPS ARE SOLVABLE

This work is a continuation of [A. O. Asar, On infinitely generated groups whose proper subgroups are solvable, J. Algebra, 399 (2014) 870-886.], where it was shown that a perfect infinitely generated group whose proper subgroups are solvable and in whose homomorphic images normal closures of finitely generated subgroups are residually nilpotent is a Fitting p-group for a prime p. Thus this work is a study of a Fitting p-group whose proper subgroups are solvable. New characterizations and some sufficient conditions for the solvability of such a group are obtained.
